a New Railroad.

Three or four weeks ago articles of i'll
corporation were filed with the territorial
secretary at Helena Of the Rocky Fork Il
Cooke City railway company, proposed
railway to be constructed from a point OH
the Northern Pacific railroad at or near q
siding on said Northern Pacific railroad,
known as Laurel, IN Yellowstone county,

Getting Rid of O BedfelIow,

There will be an immense crowd assembled
in this city on the occasion of the national
encampment next September, and there will
unquestionably be a large number of people
crowded into single room. For the benefit
of such as may find themselves In unpleasant
company, l will relate the measures took to
protect myself on the occasion of the Cali
fornia encampment. The hotel was crowded,
and l was obliged to share my bed with
an unknown gentlemen from PetalulrA. The
clerk introduced us, and I soon perceived
that the gentleman had not only looked upon
the wine when it was red, but also drank
it, determined to have my full share of
the bed, and in order to obtain this end, upon
retiring I strapped sharp spur to my heel.
When my convivial bedfellow rolled between
the sheets l began to kick about as if sleeping
restlessly. The spur was brought into fire.
quent contact with the cuticle of my friend,
and must have produced severe laceration
He stood it nobly for some time, but finally
arose, got into his clothes as well as he could,
and made ftr the door. AT the threshold
he turned back and shook me by the shoulder
to awaken u,e "Sir," he said, "before go
away wat to tell you that if you were a
gentleman you would cut your toe nails"

Figuring to Fit Minds.

ayes, said a down town tailor the other
day. "ftting people with clothes is just about
as often matter of temperament as it is any
thing else. We can fit bodies well enough,
but it takes a great deal of skill and hard
work and figuring to fit minds. And about
half the time it's the mind that we have to fit
rather than the body. Some minds are large
wasted and angular at the same time, and
there is no tailor alive that can get around
them unless he is tremendously agile. Some
times the minds change after we've measured
them and before the clothes are tried on to
them Some minds that we have got the
knack of fitting change their shape gradually
as the years roll on, and, with increasing age,
increasing size and added curves and angles,
get so that there is no approaching q fit for
them There's nothing for them to do in such
a case but to go to another tailor, and it's one
of the strangest things in the world that when
they do so they often resume their normal
proportions in manner that is almost
miraculous. But, bless you they'll swell
again, and get SO that they can't be fitted.
"The influence of money on the shape of a
mind is one Of the things that we havo to deal
with. You can trace every additional $50
that man has put in the bank or invested in
stocks or bonds by some mental protuberance
or other that you have got to measure around
in making him suit of clothes. Yes, it's q
great knack fitting clothes to minds!"-Bos-
ton Transcript.

What Is ApopiexyY

Apoplexy is, strictly speaking, disease OF
The blood vessels and not Of the brain. Age
or imperfect nutrition, brought about by any
cause or constitutional tendency, may be the
cause of it. The composition of these vessels
Is one Of the ncsS wonderful Of the studies
that anatomy yields. In full health nature
has strengthened them with threefold COW
sring, the two inner ones being brittle and
the outer one tough. The middle shell, SO to
speak, serves the purpose Of glazing on por-
GUS vessels and insures the non-fltration Of
the blood under the powerful pressure from
the great pumping engine, the heart. 1t Is
this important part Of the artery which in
age is particularly liable to deterioration, and
TO permit the heart under strong excitement
to drive the blood through the vessel faster
than it can be conveyed, to put strain upon
the weakened pipes and produce either rup-
ture or a leakage. Where rupture occurs
and large quantities escape we have hemmor-
hage; the oozing Of blood, or serum, one Of
its constituents, through the walls of the YES
sci is an exosmosis. Mr.. Beechers active
brain had, Of course, drawn largely upon the
service Of its supply pipes, and the vessels
that nourish it might well be expected to
show the first signs Of loss Of resisting power.
The natural tendency o -ie blood to seek tho
brain, too, would expos, them to abnormal
pressure. Brooklyn Citizen.

A sIuliltude Of Ailments.

The ailments which afiict the kidneys and
bladder are so numerous, that merely to name
them would fill space far outrunning the
limits of this article. Suffice it to say, that
they are both obstinate and dangerous. 10
their prevention Hostetters Stomach Bitters
is well adapted. The stimulus which it lends
TO the action Of the kidneys when they are
lethargic, serves TO counterfeit u tendency In
them to lapse, first, into n state Of pernicous
inactivity, aud afterwards into one II positive
organic disease, which soon destroys their
delicate integuments, poisons the blood and
causes death. a double purpose is served by
this depurent. 1t promotes activity OF the
Kidneys, and expels Impurities from the
blood which have no natural channel of out
let, except those organs. Constipation, bill
liousness, fever and ague, rheumatism ami
dyspepsia, are also remcdled by this medicine

Fashions in Manners.

There are fashions in manners as there are
in clothes, and these the New York girl is
sharp as needle at seeing, and clever as a
star actress at adopting Some years ago that
ugly fashion came in for excitable manners,
when the girls talked SO fast and gasped so
you felt as though the whole female portion
of the town spent its life in running to catch
trains In one week they all broke out in it.
Not girl who was anybody retained her old
form of address. Since then the English man
ner has come in. The use of the broad "a"
fell on them like pestience. Not an "a" was
left to pursue the even tenor Of its way I'M
molested The word "lady" was pronounced
bad form and woman" substituted; gentle
men friends" was boycotted, land men that
know" took its place. In prematurely short
time the change was effected, and one could
not but believe that it was the work of years
Now the languid manner is chic. The girls
who gasped and nearly fell into spasms four
years ago are half asleep to-day. You would
not believe they were the same creatures The
quick turns of the head, the rapid gestures of
the hand all, all are gone into the limbo of
the past, and a drowsy, magnificent langor
reigns in their stead.-The Argonaut.

MRS. BEECHER'S LETTERS.
How She Spared Her Husband Pain b,
Eeeplng Tales of Woe From Him.

How She Spared Her Husband Pain by
Keeping Tales of Woe From Him.
S. Il. Adams, of this city, is in possession Of
letters written by Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher
in 1851 and 1852, in which she speaks of the
trying times growing out of the Beecher-Til-
ton scandal, their own poverty and Mr..
Beecher's arduous duties. These letters
prove her sublime self abnegation.
Under date of Feb S, 1881, Mrs. Beecher
wrote: "You should see the immense pile Of
unopened letters before me, the punishment
for two days absence from the city. Nearly
nine-tenths are addressed to Mr.. Beecher, but
he never reads letters unless there is some
matter that he alone can decide, which is not
often the case. Thousands come to us that
he never sees, consequently they do not
trouble his brain, or, what would be more Sc
rious, grieve his tender heart. All correspon-
dence is left to me, one of the cheerfully &c
cepted but onerous duties resulting from be-
ing the wife of such a man."
On June Z, 1882. she writes: 'The pitiless
blackmail persecution to which my husband
was subjected few years ago turned our
heads white before our time and nearly broke
my heart at last. That trial cost us $l60, 900.
We were not worth 100000. The impression
seems to be general that he is q wealthy man.
He never was, but when comfortably well Off
his Overlooking generosity enabled him to lay
by nothing of any account Sometimes now
if did not discreetly purloin the contents of
his too liberal pockets the household expenses
would remain unpaid. He cannot help re-
turning moneyless because of the tales OF
woe that seem to lie in wait for him upon the
street. Since that terrible trial he has worked
necessarily, to the detrment of his health
preaching, lecturing, writing, hoping to lift
the heavy mortage from our home here Co
lumbia Heights, Brooklyn, but it had to be
sold in the spring"
On Nov. z 1889, Mrs. Beecher alludes Il,
the two or three bushels Of letters that have
accumulated during Mr.. Beecher's vacation,
to say nothing of all that followed us into the
country" She speaks of the innumerable pc
titions for help, and exclaims, "Oh, that
the whole world could know that we are
poor, poor, poor in everything but the ability
to grieve for woes we have not the power to
aid. From the letters l have classed as
genuine l find that the sums so pitifully
pleaded for aggregate over S0,000n
Referring to this subject in another letter,
she says: "What can l do but half break
my heart over sorrows that my dear husband
could not alleviate were they known to hint
1t would make him ill to read the letters.
This suffering can spare him."
In her self abnegation she makes no moan
'because this suffering is vicario1sy visited
upon her." In letter written in December,
1882, she speaks once more of that "infamous
Dlackmail scheme" and adds: ~ am conf
dent that history will refer to It as the most
cruel and constituencies of this or any other
century. Special in New York
World

He Knew the Key.

Two or three young operators were idlins
about the government telegraph office on thu
house side one day, when a quiet looking
medium sized gentleman approached ant
made some inquiry concerning the state Of
the stock market. AS he scanned the list ont
Of the young men, opening the key nearest t.
him and looking at brother operator tC
attract his attention.. asked the question
Geographically:
"Who's his fresh nibs7'
Before his startled companion could answer
the quiet looking gentleman grabbed the
other key and flashed back the answer:
"My name is s. V. White. The boys In
New York call me the deacon shall be a
member of the Fiftieth congress learned
telegraphy for my own amusement in my Of
fee in New York city. If you want any
further information"
But the curious young telegrapher had fed
and the "deacon's" sentence remained unfin

Two High Priests of Dyspepsia.

English people," remarks Dr. Holmes
shave queer notions about ice water and ice
cream" Is this not queer comment to come
from an old physician and an intelligent man
of the world' Not only English people, but
all other European peoples, have well
grounded dislike for those two American high
priests of dyspepsia, ice cold water and ice
cream; and it is odd that man Of cosmo-
politan knowledge like Dr. Holmes should put
in brief in their defense A counter charge
Is made against the English fondness for tea
but while tea iDebriation is no doubt common
In England, it has not made race Of dyspep-
tics Of the people, which ice cold beverages
are tolerably sure to do. A prohibition
movement against the national addiction to
refrigerated stomach is eminently desira-
ble.-New York Home Journal
